Information

Habitats is an exciting website which will allow you to discover and explore the wonderful world of natural habitats.  A habitat is the place occupied by a whole community of plants and animals - it is where they live.

This website provides a wide range of information with an emphasis on British habitats, particularly those in East Devon.

The Habitats Website will be constantly expanding and updating.  It has been launched with an extensive study of heathland habitats - what they are, where they are and why they are so important.
